    My husband had a milestone birthday coming up and I wanted to celebrate him in a large and unique way. What do you give for someone who asks for nothing? I knew an experience rather than a "gift" was the way to go, but I didn't quite know how to make that work. Long story short, I came across sailATX and though I thought it would be impossible for me to gift my husband with such an amazing experience, I decided to reach out to them with hope. Steve quickly replied to my email and went out of his way to make this special day work for me. He was very kind and understanding and I never felt like a bother, despite my many questions. He promptly set me up with Paul who took care of all my reservation info; while being incredibly understanding with the whispers and quick changes in conversation whenever my husband would enter the room! Our captain for the day was Kent, and our experience with him mirrored that of my interactions with the company up until this point - friendly, personable, and patient. He even put up a happy birthday sign on the boat! Everyone knew this was going to be a surprise and it was fun to feel like we were all in on it. It made my husbands birthday feel that much more special - that people who don't even know him would go out of their way to help me celebrate him. My heart was very happy and I am so glad to have found sailATX. I am definitely recommending them to others and we plan on coming back to them in the future. Thanks, you guys! I appreciate all of you.

    My hubby and I have been yearning for the sailing life for literal years now, and we decided that…read morethis summer was the perfect time to start making that dream a reality by taking the first sailing course, ASA 101! Our initial thought was to find a sailing school in Kemah, but I wondered if there was one closer to us, and, sure enough, there is! Enter Outbound Sailing on Lake Travis. We scheduled our class right away online, and the manager, Sean, confirmed with us almost immediately. Both he and Tim, the business owner, were absolute pleasures to work with! When the day finally came for Day 1 of our ASA 101 course, we headed over to Lakeway to meet our instructor, Spencer, at the dock, and, y'all, he is seriously the most open, sweet, encouraging, and engaging person ever, and that's not hyperbole! I was extremely nervous about the whole thing, but he immediately made me feel INCREDIBLY at ease, and, we got straight to work! From beginning to end, hubby and I knew that Spencer had our backs, from the dock talks to the rigging talks to the knot talks to the hours of beautiful practice sailing. He made all of that hard work feel like pure fun! Make no mistake, though, y'all! It IS hard work, and you need to know that going in! It's an actual class, so don't expect mimosas and charcuterie boards as you sail! LOL! You need to Really. Want. To. Learn. How. To. Sail. We did, so we were all in! Pro tip: When they tell you to buy the official ASA book for the course and to study it PRIOR to the class, take them seriously! Study, and especially commit the Points of Sail and the sailboat, sails, and rigging parts to memory. Also, do the 4 review sections! It'll all make things a lot easier on you! There's a 100 multiple choice question official ASA exam that you take on the morning of Day 2, and, while Spencer was a GENIUS at preparing us for it, we were able to spend more time actually sailing because of how prepared we made ourselves ahead of time! After two intense and awesome days, hubby and I both ended up passing the course to become ASA 101 certified (yay!), but, most importantly, we truly had the time of our lives doing it, and we absolutely have Spencer LeGrande and Outbound Sailing to thank for that!

    We just finished our ASA 101 training with Captain Scott, and he was very kind when explaining how…read morewe inadvertently made the sailboat do crazy things! LOL Captain Scott is a skilled sailor and a wonderful instructor... I'd take another class from him any time. Captain Tim, one of the owners, met with my wife and me before we decided to take the lessons. He spent all the time needed to answer all of our questions and explain the process. Lake Travis is a good place to take your sailing training, the winds come from all directions and are constantly changing. We are looking forward to further honing our sailing skills and sailing with Outbound Sailing. We highly recommend you check them out if you're thinking about learning to sail.
